How Does Live Scan Work?

The Live Scan system was implemented in California in 1997. This process is needed for a background check, and is just a simple copy-scan picture of your fingerprints. Normally this service is used by employers in order to know more about the person that they are hiring, this is with the purpose of look at any history of the person and that way they keep their business running in a safe environment. Different Federal, local or state law enforcement agencies as FBI, etc, use the technology of Live Scan.

Who can be Required to obtain Live Scan Fingerprints?

If you need a professional license for working with elderly people or children, or EMT’s, caregivers, nurses, consultants, contractors, teachers, notaries and any others that require official Live Scan fingerprints and background checking.

Why Use Live Scan Instead of Ink Paper Cards for FBI Clearance?

Let’s face it – if you need a clearance from the FBI you may not have the time to wait.

Fingerprint Cards (even if the fingerprints were electronically captured and printed onto cards) submitted to the FBI take 6-8 WEEKS to process, unlike Live Scan’s electronic capture and submission which returns results within 3-7 days, and sometimes as quick as an HOUR!

NOT ALL “Live Scan” facilities are the same!

Some facilities incorrectly refer to themselves as “live scan” facilities, but Live Scan is the ELECTRONIC CAPTURE AND SUBMISSION of fingerprints. A fingerprint facility that uses live scan technology to capture prints, but prints them on a fingerprint card are FAKES!

Any company that offers to submit your fingerprints electronically, but requires you to send them fingerprint cards is also substandard the only true way to submit electronically and then immediately transmits them to FBI.
